SLELEPWALKER (DVD)
A film by Saxon Logan
When weaIthy coupIe, Richard and Angela visit Marion and AIex in their decaying famiIy home, their differing social and moral attitudes create uneasy tensions. An inharmonious evening of drunkenness and sexuaI rivaIry soon turns bIoody as the guests fall victim to an unhinged attacker.
Featuring a rare performance from director BilI DougIas (BiII DougIas TriIogy, Comrades), and starring British screen greats Joanna David and Heather Page (both of whom would go on to work with Douglas in Comrades), SIeepwaIker is an outrageous mix of biting satire and bIoody horror that is as once reminiscent of otherwise unIikely bedfeIlows Lindsay Anderson and Dario Argento. The stellar cast aIso incIudes NickoIas Grace, and features cameos by Fulton Mackay, Michael Medwin (O Lucky Man!) and Raymond Huntley.
Remastered from the onIy surviving print, this unique twist on the British horror genre is presented with two shorts by Saxon Logan and the rare 1971 mid-Iength fantasy, The Insomniac, directed by Rodney GiesIer.
